NXS-GRX
NXS-GRX (canonical data, provenance and risk) is the risk data fabric: indicators, datasets and derived risk products for countries and sectors, each with its source, method, version and evidence label.

03The problem it addresses
Risk indicators from different sources do not join cleanly.
NXS-GRX is defined in system profile NRS-S6 of the Nexus Standards. Country risk analysis combines published statistics, Earth observation, model outputs and expert assessments with different definitions, units and update cycles. A risk data fabric harmonises them while keeping each value’s lineage, so that a composite never hides what it is made of.
- Indicator definitions and metadata in a shared register.
- Lineage from source to derived product.
- Evidence labels carried into every output.
04Reference practice
The standards a design like this is read against.
| Reference | Relevance |
|---|---|
| SDMX | Exchange of statistical data and metadata |
| UN fundamental principles for national statistics (resolution 68/261) | Quality and independence of published data |
| W3C PROV | Provenance of derived products |
05Neighbouring systems
What it exchanges with the other systems.
06Rooms
The ten rooms of NXS-GRX.
The Global Risks Index (NXS-GRX) has the eight rooms every Foundry system shares, set to its own authority, and two specialist rooms, Fusion and Cascades. Each is described by the work it is designed for; the public register records NXS-GRX as declared, not deployed.
| Room | Kind | Designed to |
|---|---|---|
| Station | Shared | Operate, inspect and correct authoritative domain posture for canonical data, evidence, graph, risk, fusion and statistical-geospatial products |
| Mission | Shared | Coordinate bounded objective-oriented intelligence and human handoff for canonical data, evidence, graph, risk, fusion and statistical-geospatial products |
| Builder | Shared | Design, engineer and prepare governed changes and artefacts for canonical data, evidence, graph, risk, fusion and statistical-geospatial products |
| Maps | Shared | Inspect and compose spatial, temporal and world-model intelligence for canonical data, evidence, graph, risk, fusion and statistical-geospatial products |
| Data | Shared | Work with data, ontology, Chronotopes, graphs, scientific methods and risk for canonical data, evidence, graph, risk, fusion and statistical-geospatial products |
| Commons | Shared | Work with policy, law, standards, clauses, obligations and assurance for canonical data, evidence, graph, risk, fusion and statistical-geospatial products |
| Reports | Shared | Compute, model, synthesise and visualise governed analytical products and reproducible reports for canonical data, evidence, graph, risk, fusion and statistical-geospatial products |
| Knowledge | Shared | Work with institutional memory, records, citations, runbooks and learning for canonical data, evidence, graph, risk, fusion and statistical-geospatial products |
| Fusion | Specialist | Construct defensible canonical products from heterogeneous records, observations, entities and relationships |
| Cascades | Specialist | Investigate propagation across interdependent water, energy, food, health, biodiversity, infrastructure, technology, supply-chain and other configured domains |
07Access
Authorised projects only.
Access requires an authorised project with an accountable owner, data terms and a review plan. Enquiries go to the contact form.
08Risk Academy
Where NXS-GRX subjects are taught.
Risk Academy, led by the Nexus Consortium, teaches the subjects practised in NXS-GRX in these disciplines; the Global Centre for Risk and Innovation (GCRI) links to the Academy as a partner and does not provide its courses.
